Instructions
The amount of seasoning depends on the size of the chicken breasts.
2 Chicken Breasts
The most important part is just to sprinkle evenly on both sides so that all of the meat is covered.
1-2 Tablespoons Taco Seasoning
Heat a grill over medium heat and dip a paper towel in a little olive oil or canola if you must.
Olive Oil for the grill
Using tongs, wipe the oil over the grill and then place the meat down, cookingn 5-7 minutes per side, turning only once.
Place on a plate and lightly cover (not wrap) with tin foil and allow to rest for 3-5 minutes before shredding.
Serve in soups, tacos, enchiladas, or rice bowls.
